I wanted to have the wood trim on my e55 wrapped in carbon fiber. Does anyone know someone local that does it and does a good job? I live in the los angeles area. In the mean time anyone have pics if there e55 with the wood trim wrapped?

Although I have not used his services yet, but his vinyl/carbon wrapping skills looks stellar. I believe he's in the OC area but also offers mobile service.

Worth the wait

Be prepared to disassemble quite a bit to get all the pieces off

Also, O.Carbon does very nice real CF for a reasonable price.

He took off alot of the trim to cover them really well and to tuck it. Lighting is terrible interior is dirty but here are some pics he just finished.

i love that centre console bin. so much better than my stupid split arm rest with the telephone handset inside

Looks great, really changed the look of the interior...

Personally, i would have done it 5d carbon fiber vinyl for that gloss look.

Heard you can switch center console to the roll up. Thought I saw a post on it. I saw a bunch in the junkyard awhile ago. If I see one, I'll look out for ya; they're cheap!

mondo

postage to Australia probably won't be cheap though! lol...

I’ve sent flat rate box to UK for $36 on door handles. If center console cost $40-60 and shipping cost $100...thinks it’s worth the conversion. Just thinking 🤔 Not sure how much cost actually are but I’ll let ya know. But in the meantime, do some research on conversion.

I glanced over the pictures and was wondering why that interior looked familiar, haha.

LOL, good job love it.

tlambert

What does this cost to have done if it was already disassembled?

I understand and if you don’t want to post it here but could you pm me the info?

Thanks.
